History
Nogizaka Station opened on 20 October 1972 on the Teito Rapid Transit Authority's Chiyoda Line, named for the Nogizaka slope on Tokyo Metropolitan Route 413 in Akasaka. The station transferred to Tokyo Metro with the agency's privatisation on 1 April 2004, and PASMO use began on 18 March 2007. Exit 4 was decommissioned when the adjoining hotel was demolished at the end of December 2010 and has remained numbered but unused since. A departure melody using piano arrangements of the Nogizaka46 song "Kimi no Na wa Kibō," performed by member Erika Ikuta, was introduced on 26 March 2016, and platform-edge doors entered service in autumn 2019. The station consists of one island platform serving two tracks on a sharp curve.

Notes
The piano arrangement used as Nogizaka's departure melody was crowdsourced via a Tokyo Metro public request period in 2015 — Nogizaka46's "Kimi no Na wa Kibō" received about 6,400 votes and topped the poll.
