The administrative offices, with about 200 employees, are expected to relocate by next summer to a 140,000-square-foot modern building in Braintree that is owned by The Flatley Companies, whose founder Thomas Flatley is a major supporter of the Catholic Church and a member of the archdiocese's Finance Council. Some other archdiocese employees in the Boston area are expected to move eventually to the Braintree location.
