History
Zōshiki Station opened on 1 February 1901 as part of the Keihin Electric Railway extension between Rokugōbashi and Ōmori, taking its name from the local village of Zōshiki. The station was shifted from a road-side stop onto its own right-of-way in April 1923, and platforms were extended from four to six cars in July 1979 when the level crossing was replaced by an underpass. As part of the Keikyū Kamata continuous-elevation project begun in December 2000, both platforms were lifted onto the viaduct in stages — the up platform on 16 May 2010 and the down platform on 21 October 2012 — with the wider scheme completed in March 2017. The station now carries number KK18.
