History
Senzoku-ike Station opened on 28 August 1927 when the Ikegami Electric Railway extended its line from the present Yukigaya-Ōtsuka Station to the now-defunct Kiri-ga-ya Station. The station is named for Senzoku Pond, immediately north of the platforms across the Nakahara-kaidō. The original station building was rebuilt in August 1934. A large-scale renovation in fiscal 2005 installed elevators on both side platforms and added a multipurpose lavatory on the Yukigaya-Ōtsuka/Kamata-bound side. Today the elevated stop sits on the Tōkyū Ikegami Line in Higashi-Yukigaya, Ōta, Tokyo, with two opposed platforms serving two tracks and the station code IK07. The Chūō Shinkansen's First Capital Region Tunnel passes beneath the station, with an emergency shaft planned just to the west.

Notes
A planned emergency shaft for the Chūō Shinkansen's First Capital Region Tunnel will be built just west of the station, on the site of the former Metropolitan Police Department's Higashi-Yukigaya residence.
