Tenkūbashi Station (天空橋駅, Tenkūbashi-eki) is a railway station in Ōta, Tokyo, Japan, operated jointly by Tokyo Monorail and the private railway operator Keikyu. It is named after a nearby pedestrian bridge that was completed in 1993. It was known as Haneda Station (羽田駅) from 1993 to 1998, when it was renamed to avoid confusion with the terminal station serving Haneda Airport.[1]
