Nagamachi Station (長町駅, Nagamachi eki?) is a station on the Sendai Subway Nanboku Line, and on JR East's Jōban Line and Tōhoku Main Line in Taihaku-ku, Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. The subway and JR lines are not directly connected, however, the distance between the two stations is only around two hundred metres. In 1999 a significant area of the stationfront precinct was redeveloped for commercial and transport enhancement. Construction was undertaken by Japanese general construction contractor Nakano Corporation.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn’t love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
