History
Hisaya-ōdōri Station opened on 10 September 1989 when the Sakura-dōri Line entered service; at the same time a new Meijō Line platform was created at the crossing point, making it an interchange. It carries numbers M06 on the Meijō Line and S05 on the Sakura-dōri Line. During planning it had the working name Higashi-Sakura; the present designation was adopted in December 1988, taken from the Hisaya-ōdōri avenue overhead. In 1999 it became the first station on the Nagoya Municipal Subway to host a convenience store inside the paid area. Platform-edge doors entered service on the Sakura-dōri Line on 13 March 2011 and on the Meijō Line on 6 September 2020.

Notes
The gap to neighbouring Sakae Station on the Meijō Line is under 400 m — the shortest inter-station distance on the entire Nagoya Municipal Subway — while the Sakura-dōri Line platforms here are about twice the usual width.
