Exiting the ticket gate and heading north (toward Ushioe), you'll immediately see a statue of Umegawa. There's a metal enclosure around the statue, and you'll often find people taking a break or meeting up there. It's a bit high, so it's more of a place to perch than to sit.
It's a busy spot, but it's located in a covered concourse, so you can escape the heat, rain, and wind.
