=History
Hiyoshi Station opened as one of the original Tōyoko Line stations on 14 February 1926. The station was completely rebuilt in 1991 with half-submerged tracks and an elevated station building constructed above the tracks. The adjacent Tokyu Department store opened in 1995. The Yokohama Subway Green Line connected to Hiyoshi Station on March 30, 2008.
The Tōkyū Shin-yokohama Line from Shin-yokohama to Hiyoshi opened on 18 March 2023, enabling through services between the Tōkyū Tōyoko Line, the Tōkyū Meguro Line and the Sōtetsu Shin-yokohama Line. As a result, the station was assigned station number SH03 when these services began revenue operations.
Since the opening of the Shin-yokohama Line, most southbound express trains of the Meguro Line continue onward to the Shin-yokohama Line instead of terminating at Hiyoshi, while about half of the Meguro Line local trains remain terminating at/departing from Hiyoshi. Only some of the southbound express trains of the Tōyoko Line enter Shin-yokohama Line. The rest of the express, all limited express, commuter express and local trains remain on the Tōyoko Line for Kikuna, Yokohama and Motomachi-Chūkagai.
