Futako-Tamagawa Station (二子玉川駅 Futako-tamagawa-eki?) is located in Setagaya, Tokyo, Japan, on the north-east bank of the Tama River. The area surrounding the station is commonly called Futako-Tamagawa, and often refers to the Tamagawa and Seta districts of Setagaya, but there is no precise definition. It is colloquially referred to as "Futako" (フタコ) or "Nikotama" (ニコタマ), from an alternate reading of the first three kanji characters in the name.
The east side of Futako-Tamagawa station is mostly occupied by the Futako-Tamagawa Rise complex. The Tamagawa Takashimaya (玉川高島屋?) shopping center, located on the west side, is a branch of the Takashimaya department store chain. It opened as Japan's first suburban shopping centre in 1969, and kick-started the development of similar stores around Japan.
