History
Kamiiida Station opened on 11 February 1931 as the terminus of the Meitetsu Komaki Line. From 1944 to 1971 a Nagoya City Tram line connected the station to Ōzone Station; the closure of that tram line caused inconvenience for commuters, and as early as 1972 a connection with the Nagoya Municipal Subway network was planned. The proposal was raised again in 1992 as 'a line that urgently needs to be built'. The entire station was moved underground in 2003 with the opening of the new Kamiiida Line.

Notes
Kamiiida is now an underground station. The basement first floor houses ticket gates with automated turnstiles, and an island platform sits on the basement second floor. The two underground floors and the street level are linked by elevators and escalators.
