Teizo Ishikawa describes the road in the encyclopedia of hill roads of Edo and Tokyo (江戸東京坂道事典):
In Tokyo-fu Shiryo (東京府志料) it was described as Yoshimizaka, a hill which goes down the west side of town to the north, toward the field of Shirokane Village, previously reeds had grown in the whole place, and people were able to look down on the reed fields; because of this it was given the name.
