I have seen a lot of animation and I can't work out how they did the tracking shot at the beginning of this. The buildings seem to be 3-dimensional and not just with flat drawings on different levels, as with the Disney multiplane technique.

It was called a rotograph. "Popeye the Sailor Meets Sinbad the Sailor" and "Popeye Meets Ali Baba and his 40 Thieves", the two featurettes, are probably the best-known cartoons to use the technique.
