[1] You can cut off the corners of small boxes with a serrated knife (for example), and then white glue them to be stable. These can be then white glued to the bottom of paper buildings in order to square up the building. If you also cut the lengths longer, they can also reinforce the sides of the building.

[2] Craft places sell very small clothes pins that can be used to hold pieces together while the glue dries.

[3] You can leave an elmers glue cap off or a good while and this will evaporate enough water from the glue to thicken it up so it doesn't warp the paper as much. link
