History
Yoyogi-Uehara Station opened on 1 April 1927 as Yoyohata-Uehara Station, a stop on the Odawara Express Railway (now Odakyū Electric Railway). The current name was adopted on 15 October 1941, and the station was closed from June to December 1945 in the final months of the war. Elevation of the tracks was completed during 1976, and a new station building opened on 18 October 1977 in preparation for through-running with the Teito Rapid Transit Authority's Chiyoda Line, which began on 31 March 1978. The Chiyoda Line platforms passed to Tokyo Metro on 1 April 2004, and the quadruple-tracking between Yoyogi-Uehara and Umegaoka was completed on 3 March 2018.

Notes
Although a private-railway station, Yoyogi-Uehara is jointly used by Odakyū and Tokyo Metro, and through-running with the Chiyoda Line has on occasion lined up JR East and JR Central rolling stock across opposite platforms.
