History
Fukabori-chō Stop (DY06) is on the Hakodate City Tram Yunokawa Line in Kashiwagi-chō, Hakodate, Hokkaidō. It opened on 29 June 1913 as Fukabori Stop, was renamed Nogi-jinja-mae before 1938, reverted to Fukabori before 1947, became Fukabori-chō Stop on 22 November 1950, was renamed twice more (to Fukabori-chō Keirinjō-mae and Fukabori-chō Keirinjō-dōri) and settled back on Fukabori-chō on 1 June 1952. The clock on the outbound platform was donated in July 2002.

Notes
Fukabori-chō's longest-lived signage hosts the Hokkaidō Shakai Jigyō Kyōkai Hakodate Hospital, the National Hospital Organisation Hakodate Medical Centre and JGSDF Camp Hakodate — three institutions whose combined traffic kept the stop alive even through the Nogi-jinja-mae, Keirinjō-mae and Keirinjō-dōri renamings.
