You don't want to quote the parameter references --- what you've got
there is simple literal constants '$3' etc. Try
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.map_point(pg_catalog.varchar,
pg_catalog.varchar, pg_catalog.varchar) RETURNS point AS
'SELECT map_loc from zip_code where zip = $3 and lower(state) =
lower($2) and lower(city) = lower($1)' LANGUAGE 'sql' VOLATILE;
Also, I can't see any reason why this function needs to be VOLATILE;
STABLE should be enough, no?
