History
Sangubashi Station opened on 1 April 1927.
Station numbering was introduced to the Odakyu terminal in 2014 with Shinjuku being assigned station number OH03.[1][2]
Renovation works to the east exit started in November 2018 and were completed in November 2020.[3] The updated station building was constructed using wood from western Tokyo; the design elements, in particular its use of Shinto-inspired architecture, reflect its proximity to the Meiji Shrine.[3]
