The former Expressway Toyota dealership at the corner of Morrissey Boulevard and Freeport Street was sold this month for $21.5 million to an LLC controlled by owners of a long-time car dealership company based in Rhode Island.

The Dorchester car dealer is now operating as Tasca Toyota of Boston.

The property was sold by an LLC controlled by Robert and Richard Boch, Jr., the longtime operators of the Expressway-branded dealership, to Robert Jr., Carl, and David Tasca, of Cranston, RI on Oct. 1. The Tasca family owns Ford dealerships in Rhode Island and on Cape Cod.

Reporter calls to Tasca headquarters in Cranston, and to the location on Morrissey Boulevard, were not immediately returned.
