History
Aomi Station opened on 1 November 1995 on the Yurikamome elevated automated transit line in Kōtō, Tokyo, with the station number U-10. The station consists of a single elevated island platform serving two tracks and sits adjacent to a pier used by Tokyo water bus services. From its opening, the surrounding area held little commercial activity until the 1999 opening of Palette Town, which became the dominant source of ridership and drove a sharp rise in passenger numbers. The complex closed in 2022 for redevelopment, and ridership has since fallen back to the lowest level on the Yurikamome network. The station is on the south side of the former Palette Town site, with access continuing to the Rinkai Line at Tokyo Teleport via Telecom Bridge.

Notes
The Yurikamome's Aomi (青海, "Aomi") is sometimes confused with JR's identically written Ōme Station in Ōme City; the same characters also denote the Echigo Tokimeki Railway's Ōmi Station in Niigata, where they are read differently again.
