Shinagawa Station is a major terminal station in southern Tokyo, served by the Tokaido Shinkansen, Tokaido, Yamanote, Keihin-Tohoku, and Yokosuka Lines, as well as the Utsunomiya, Takasaki, and Joban Lines via the Ueno Tokyo Line.

The Shinkansen bullet train station has the Atre Shinagawa at the South Exit, and Ecute Shinagawa is located inside the station. The South Exit is an office area lined with the headquarters of major companies, while the Takanawa Exit on the opposite side is home to commercial facilities and hotels.

Construction is currently underway at JR Shinagawa Station in conjunction with the conversion of Keikyu Shinagawa Station into an above-ground station and the construction of Shinagawa Station for the Linear Central Shinkansen Line, which is scheduled to be completed in 2027 or later.
